The irony is that, at age 31, he’s considered ancient by NFL running back standards, and by current societal standards he’s a fairly young first-time father.
============
I don’t know about that. Half the players in the NFL these days have kids before they get to the league.

PurpleNGold says:Jul 7, 2010 9:03 PM

There’s nothing ironic about it. Rock on, Daylen!

NYMets says:Jul 7, 2010 9:04 PM

LT — first child and first SuperBowl ring all in the same season. Good for you.

7370355q$ says:Jul 7, 2010 9:05 PM

Good for LaDainian despite the public’s opinion i’ve always enjoyed his personality and I’m a fan of him. Let’s just hope LT doesn’t let Cromartie babysit.

Fapplejax says:Jul 7, 2010 9:06 PM

31 is young to have a kid? I think the producers of MTV’s 16 & Pregnant would disagree

milehiclown says:Jul 7, 2010 9:06 PM

Daylen? Seriously? DAYLEN Tomlinson?

jkiddrock says:Jul 7, 2010 9:08 PM

I’m guessing the name will start with the classic “La-” or “Le-(name here)”.
Por ejemplo (for example in spannish)
– LaBabian Tomlinson.
– LeQueefha Tomlinson.
– LaLarry Tomlinson.
– LaShawn. LeSean. LaShonne. RaShonne.
And so on and so forth…

rainder says:Jul 7, 2010 9:12 PM

You media types really have the god complex, so was it a virgin birth “Daylen was born earlier today, via multiple media reports”?

philwauke says:Jul 7, 2010 9:12 PM

I expected to click on this and find out the hooker was pregnant.

RedGoneWILD says:Jul 7, 2010 9:14 PM

I’m 28 years old and have an 11 year old son…what does that place me in the standards of society?

Depends. Are you a chick or a dude?
Because on one hand it puts you in the “Teen slut” category and on the other it puts you in the “Dude!” category.

David_Hanni_Jr says:Jul 7, 2010 9:24 PM

Great! Now he’ll have somethign to do when he gets cut in August
HAHA your a complete idiot !

bigbolt says:Jul 7, 2010 9:25 PM

That baby is going to learn to whine from the best of ’em!

digitalbath says:Jul 7, 2010 9:25 PM

really,really,,dont they have 2 kids before they drop out of high school now a days?,seems like he is way behind

minhw0714 says:Jul 7, 2010 9:29 PM

Jeff0621 – LOL. His son will average more yards per tote than his Dad in 2010.

sven_ftw says:Jul 7, 2010 9:29 PM

congrats to him!

It places you among all of the rest of the losers who knock up girls in high school.

theycallme_iPod says:Jul 7, 2010 9:33 PM

RedGoneWild…
This places you among stupid rednecks who are too stupid to use a condom in a proper way…
Ah no, damn it, it was an accident, aight?

Doesn’t Travis Henry have kids in the NFL already?

TampaBayBucs6and10 says:Jul 7, 2010 9:57 PM

LaDaddy -N- Tomlinson. Good times. I hope the best for him and his wife. ….. I ahve a real question for all the dark folks out there. Where does the “La” and “Le” come from in the names? Is it Spanish or French? just wondering. Congrats to L Tomlinson.

Bob says:Jul 7, 2010 9:58 PM

“L.T. is a daddy”

Lawrence Taylor is a daddy again?

C’mon, get an original nickname. Geez…

Bronkko says:Jul 7, 2010 10:01 PM

31 in the hood is grampa age.

stiller43 says:Jul 7, 2010 10:01 PM

Fairly YOUNG first time father?
You’re f**king high.

stiller43 says:Jul 7, 2010 10:04 PM

Now he’ll have some family company on the bench when he’s hurt during the playoffs again. (If Dirty Mark Sanchez can get them there)

catchick says:Jul 7, 2010 10:11 PM

Congratulations LT, this is a long time coming for you and couldn’t be happier!!!

jimmySee says:Jul 7, 2010 10:12 PM

Hope it puts you in the responsible dad category.
Probably doesn’t put you in the college grad category (but if I’m wrong on that — congrats!).

Occam says:Jul 7, 2010 10:16 PM

L.T. still knows how to hit the hole.
Ugh. I’m so ashamed of that joke. Ashamed.

daffx4 says:Jul 7, 2010 10:26 PM

Florio was just an old man by the time he was able to go to the doctor and have a tube baby

TheToolofTools says:Jul 7, 2010 10:41 PM

I was thinking L.T. meant Lawrence Taylor and he knocked up the young girls he raped.
I kid you not.
This is The Good L.T. story.

nflhof says:Jul 7, 2010 10:52 PM

Congrats Mr. Tomlinson. I am very happy for you!!!!!!!!

cleanface says:Jul 7, 2010 10:57 PM

At least his wife is already used to a baby crying all the time.

LightningLucci says:Jul 7, 2010 11:48 PM

For those who don’t know, the Tomlinsons have been trying for years to have a baby and have already miscarried at least once.
Congrats to them.
Now, back to the LT bashing. It’s all in good fun, right?

prophet of the light says:Jul 8, 2010 1:10 AM

Was this before or after he pulled his groin and sat on the slide lines as his team got eliminated?

truecowboyfan says:Jul 8, 2010 4:24 AM

Congrats to one of the great class acts of the NFL!!! A little future running back!!! Congrats L.T.!!!

SDCade17 says:Jul 8, 2010 5:44 AM

I wonder if Daylen came out of the womb doing the Electric Glide? Anyways, congratulations to them.

lol, exactly.

SomeFans says:Jul 8, 2010 7:40 AM

I can see the excuses pouring out now… “I didnt get any sleep last night”… the baby stole my moves”… etc.
LT =BUST in 2010

overkil2 says:Jul 8, 2010 8:58 AM

@RedGoneWild
Maybe you shouldn’t have asked that question.

Spygate Operative #1 says:Jul 8, 2010 11:27 AM

Instead of bashing L.T. how bout holding him up as a fine example of an NFL player. Married to the baby’s mother and no arrests. It’s a start.

Mike Daly says:Jul 8, 2010 12:57 PM

Fairly young? By 31 that’s about midlevel on becoming a first-time dad – actually it’s closer to later and earlier.
And frankly LT is such a puss that he doesn’t even deserve this level of happiness.

funi says:Jul 8, 2010 5:12 PM

Get a DNA test, might be Cromatie’s! He was in San Diego then and now in New York!
